Freshwater
Freshwater is a large village as well as civil parish at the western end of the Isle of Wight, England. Freshwater Bay is a little cove on the south coastline of the Island which also gives its name to the nearby part of Freshwater. Freshwater rests at the western end of the area known as the Rear of the Wight or the West Wight which is a prominent visitor location. Freshwater is close to steep chalk cliffs. It was the birthplace of physicist Robert Hooke as well as was the house of Poet Laureate Alfred Lord Tennyson. Freshwater is famous for its geology and also seaside rock developments that have actually resulted from centuries worth of seaside disintegration. The "Arch Rock" was a popular local landmark that fell down on 25 October 1992. The adjoining "Stag Rock" is so named because supposedly a stag leaped to the rock from the cliff to run away throughout a quest. Another huge piece fell off the high cliff face in 1968, and also is currently known as the "Mermaid Rock". Promptly behind Mermaid Rock exists a small Sea cavern that cuts a number of metres into the new cliff.
